I don't know if this has been reported before or not but find does not
traverse the directories under /proc/registry correctly. It works fine
on the processes under /proc themselves but not the /proc/registry
subdirectory.

$ find /proc/registry
/proc/registry
/proc/registry/HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT
/proc/registry/HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/*
/proc/registry/HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/*/OpenWithList
/proc/registry/HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/*/shellex
/proc/registry/HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/*/InfoTip
/proc/registry/HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/*/QuickTip
/proc/registry/HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/*/AlwaysShowExt
/proc/registry/HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/*/TileInfo
find: /proc/registry/HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/*: Is a directory
